I've heard it said that the Tucker radiator was supplied by Young Radiator of Racine, WI. Is that true?<br>
<br>
Since the Franklin was a converted air-cooled engine, who supplied the water pump? <p></p><i></i>

Young Radiator did make the Tucker radiators. They also had representatives at the Tucker plant to help<br>
research the heating problems that were encountered. I do not know who made the water pump. It is possible it was a Tucker design that was not purchased on the open market.<br>

Water Pumps

The cooling jacket was hand designed by my Grandad (John "Eddie" Offutt). I don't know all the details off hand, but I'm fairly sure that they were custom water pumps, as the whole design was entirely new/custom<br>
